Don't love his chances. But Ma's serve is very tricky and if Lind gets frustrated you never know.

MJB does the same reverse pendulum serve every time, and every time I can't tell if its underspin or topspin. How do you even read this??

Hugo and Bruna into the XD Finals to face Lim Jonghoon/Shin Yubin. I want to see the Brazilian power couple take the XD title.

 

[piligrim]

Its time for Tanaka to play in MLTT )))

 

[nablaz]

Wait, Shin Yubin is playing her singles match right now... and when she finishes, she has to immediately switch tables and play the women's doubles semifinal?
Great scheduling...

Bruna !

She should be allowed to have a short break iirc, but yeah, it's not great scheduling.

Han Feier of China takes down Shin Yubin in R32 in the decider.

WR10...

Han Feier of China takes down Shin Yubin in R32 in the decider.

Overrated, only good for doubles. It's already been determined.

Kozul 3-0 Oh Junsung
Lind 3-0 Ma Jinbao

 

[zeio]

WD SF
QTY/SXY 1-3 Harimoto/Odo (-3, -8, 7, -2)
These 2 would've been kicked out back in Cai Zhenhua's days... What a great time it is now to carry the CNT name.

Stupid announcer determined to bury Coton at 8-6 and 9-7 and even 9-9.

If you are talking about Fraser Riley, then Yeah I have to agree with you. I like Fraser as a commentator, he’s much better than many of the others WTT bring in, but he does have a lot of bias toward certain players, an example which I noticed personally was between Jarvis and Park Ganghyeon.

Favorites or not, talking about someone's tournament being over at 8-6 and then doing it again and again when that player keeps showing he is fighting to stay in it is just disrespectful

I agree somewhat but in the end, we want the commentators to be themselves above all else. He just needs to get better. But if he feels it is over, he is allowed to be proven wrong.

 

[NextLevel]

quality of umpiring is shocking
should of gotten red for all the verbal insults

Not all umpires understand the native languages that are used in these exchanges. The ones that do usually intervene.

Wow QD straight game losses to XF in the fight for second best penholder

It is helpful to play the guy whose existence partly guarantees your travel time.

Depends on who that person is lol
